Omondi was diagnosed with a benign brain tumor in May. The surgeon at Gulu General Hospital recommended gallbladder removal, and He is scheduled for July. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $930, and after what the government subsidy will pay we're still $700 short. my father has been in and out of Gulu General Hospital since May. The doctors say a benign brain tumor will get worse without gallbladder removal. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $930 is more than we can find. While we wait, Omondi struggles with daily life and can't work a full shift. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. Recovery is expected to take about 8 weeks. During that time Omondi won't be able to work a full shift, so the costs keep growing. The money goes straight to the treatment bills, and I'll share the invoices as they're paid so you can see exactly what your gift did. Where the $700 goes: โ€ข Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $240 โ€ข Post-operative medication: $55 โ€ข Physiotherapy sessions: $80 โ€ข Hospital stay (3 nights): $290 โ€ข Pre-operative tests and imaging: $35 Glad we found this place. - Brian
